Autumn
has read and performed her poetry throughout the
Delaware Valley. In 2002, she participated in the
Philadelphia Fringe Festival as part of the Wild
Women, an ensemble of writers, artists, and musicians.
She currently hosts a monthly reading series at
Milkboy Coffee in Bryn Mawr, PA, for the Mad
Poets Society and leads a bi-monthly writing
workshop at the Big Blue Marble Bookshop in Philadelphia.
She has taught community-based poetry classes for
children and adults in Philadelphia and Trenton.
Autumn
has an M.F.A. in creative writing from Antioch University.
When she's not writing, Autumn works (and volunteers)
for nonprofit arts organizations. And when she's
not doing either of those things, she likes to bake,
knit, and wander around the city. Autumn lives in
South Philadelphia with her husband and two cats.
